Fiery Motherwell flyweight Reece McFadden guaranteed himself a Commonwealth Games boxing medal on Tuesday but insists he will not be satisfied with anything less than gold.

McFadden outpointed 2010 bronze medallist Oteng Oteng of Botswana to reach the semi-finals where he will face another tough test against Australia's Andrew Moloney.

The 19-year-old has proved the star of the competition so far at the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre after stunning double European champion and gold medal favourite Andrew Selby of Wales in the opening round.

Irresistible McFadden followed up by seeing off England's Charlie Edwards, and despite a strong last round from Oteng the home favourite held on to ensure at least bronze.

After inviting a tear-up against Selby, McFadden boxed in a much more mature fashion against Oteng and kept his nerve despite sustaining a small cut over his left eye during the opening round.

McFadden said: "That was the toughest fight I've had so far and I knew I just had to hold it in and especially when I got the cut.

"I'd like to think I can cope with the pressure, I definitely feel like I'm getting closer and there's no reason that gold shouldn't be mine."

Maxwell said: "I've beaten the boxer who won gold four years ago so I feel like I'm unstoppable now. With every fight I've been getting better."

Also at light-welterweight, Northern Ireland's Sean Duffy was a 3-0 winner over Akyazlan Azmi of Malaysia.

There were more British winners at light-heavyweight with Welshman Nathan Thorley stopping Yakita Aska of Antigua with two seconds left in the first round and Northern Ireland's Sean McGlinchy beating Elly Ochola of Kenya on points.

In the women's middleweight competition, England's reigning world champion Savannah Marshall proved too good for India's game Pooja Rani, winning a unanimous decision after a fast-paced contest, while Lauren Price of Wales outpointed Guyana's Theresa London.
